Huzzah, it's Friday!

Nothing like the end of the work week to get you thinking about stuff to do on the weekend. It's going to be another busy one but that's okay! Need to make a Simple Pie (meat) and an Apple Pie for the lunch tomorrow. My tastebuds are getting excited already! LOL

The stuff I ordered from Newcastle turned up (trim, snood etc). Huzzah! It went via Broken Hill - apparently Australia Post couldn't tell the difference between an 8 and a 3 .

My overhead projector turned up too so another toy to play with. Went and bought some film at lunch time so I can print and use! I think I will try it out on my banner making projects - trace a graphic instead of having to draw it! Much quicker methinks!

Another Day........

Well, starting to 'attack' my list of stuff......... I have booked for the Siege Tourney, just about completed a new shirt for m'lord husband (just need to add fastners on the cuffs and neck), have devices in draft form for Wolf and Geoffrey (they have been emailed to the Herald for conflict checking) and organised people of Saturday. Well, it's a start!

My stuff I ordered from Newcastle (trim and the like for m'lord husband's doublet) has gone missing in the post - thanks Australia Post! I'm also waiting on my overhead projector to turn up from Sydney *sigh*.

Had to take C to the doctor's this morning for a check up and off to Parkes tomorrow afternoon for a check up with the DORE program. Friday back to 'normal'. Can someone please remind me what normal is? My normal seems to be trying to juggle ten different things and running on adrenilin! Saturday is a house full of people (which will be good 'cause it's with my SCA friends) and an extra munchkin staying the night (one of T's friends).

Better do some work...............................

Getting back into SCA stuff........

Well, it's a new year and the first month is nearly half over! I guessed it was about time to start planning again as things tend to arrive much quicker than you think! So on the SCA front my to do list is (not in any particular order):
  1. Organise a get together for this Saturday. Catch up with friends and start thinking about the direction the group would like to move in this year;
  2. Start thinking about organising entertainment and the 'competition' for the Anniversary Feast in April (yikes!);
  3. Build a trebuchet;
  4. Book and pay for the Siege Tourney;
  5. Organise gear for the Siege Tourney and make the boys new clothes!;
  6. Make new outfits for the feast;
  7. Make banners;
  8. Organise a play for the Feast;
  9. Name and device for Dylan to be researched and registered;
  10. and probably lots of other things I have forgotten!!!!

Well, that should keep me out of trouble for a while!!!! (Hysterical giggling about now!)

I'm off the visit the Herald to lodge Trent's device re-submission.............

Back again!

Well, it has been a long, long time since anything was posted here! Between losing my password (i.e. forgetting my password!!!) and changing email addresses (you get the not being able to access picture LOL) I have finally got it sorted and I can post again! Huzzah! Now I just have to re-learn the features .

I'm going to put SCA (Society for Creative Anachronism) stuff here too. If you want to know what I am talking about, go to www.sca.org.au/radburne.


Happy thoughts!!!
